Title: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Ballast on October 26, 2005, 09:01:51 pm Hi All,
I'm afraid I have some rather disturbing news regarding our illustrious leader, JP Chenet. :-[ :'( I had the pleasure of enjoying a round of golf with Mr Chenet this afternoon. Having taken his money ;D We decided that a trip to a local watering hole would be in order. On arrival I asked what he would like as "shock, horror" there was no Stella! And here is the shocking part folks...... brace yourself. He asked for a diet coke!!!!!!! As you can imagine, I was absolutely horrified at such a response and immediately started to dial the emergency services, clearly he was delusional and needed medical assistance! I decided that the best course of action was to humour him and get him into another pub as soon as possible. We arrived at the second pub as quickly as possible where he made a bee-line for the bar (a good sign I thought) where he promptly ordered himself ANOTHER bloody diet coke! I'm sorry people, but this is NOT normal. I am deeply concerned. I'm sure that you will have something to say on this matter! Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Dave H on October 26, 2005, 09:48:08 pm I think it's pretty obvious - he must be up the duff!
Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Fran on October 26, 2005, 09:50:43 pm I cant decide what is more horrific, discovering that JPC is a closet teatotaller or discovering that Ballast is a closet golfer! :-\
'scuse me while i go and lie down in a darkened room.... ;D Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Perdu on October 26, 2005, 09:55:17 pm Anybody know where the darkened room is that Fran has gone for a lie down in?
I feel the need to join her as I recover from the alrming news of Mark's pregnancy... :o Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Fax on October 26, 2005, 10:07:42 pm Global warming, record hurricanes, and now this?
Yes folks, the apocalypse is truly upon us. Fax Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Ferrari Spider on October 26, 2005, 10:34:44 pm Gary, I'm stunned, did he look like this ;D
Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Perdu on October 26, 2005, 10:38:01 pm Oh dear!
I'm sorry I made so lightly of it... Oh dear! Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Steve Pyro on October 26, 2005, 11:04:19 pm Well that's it then. I might as well paint my bottom blue and call myself a baboon. You'll be telling me the world is round next ::) (http://www.contractedwork.com/pport/p9346/Pose_1.jpg) Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Lorry on October 26, 2005, 11:41:02 pm There's nothing wrong with diet coke. For those of you that don't know what it tastes like, let me say that its pretty good when you've mixed in enough Bacardi to take the taste away. Does JPC have a secret hip flask perhaps
Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Ballast on October 27, 2005, 08:20:13 am Worse still Fran. We are BOTH closet golfers!!
He didn't look his normal self Pete, but I dont think he'll look as bad as that ever again? Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: mgmark on October 27, 2005, 09:46:51 am Golf indeed - the best way to ruin perfectly good land. And Diet Coke ??? This insidious creep of so-called normal activity obviously coincides with the imminent end of the year's motorsport season. Sounds like a need here for some swift, positive attitude realignment. Bring in the military. A spot of early morning reveille, marching, kit inspections, cold showers and compulsory runs around the airfield should do the job to keep the dark forces at bay. Either that or playing golf on a range danger area should sharpen the mind and reinstate the desire for appropriate post-match refreshments.
MG Mark Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Bob U on October 27, 2005, 10:25:17 am Gazza, our thoughts are with you at this sad and difficult time. Whilst Mark is going through this confused period of his life he is going to need a good friend to help him cope. I am sure that you will be this good friend, a crutch to lean on, a sympethtic shoulder to cry on in his darkest hour and a voice of reason when it all becomes too much for him to bare. It won't be easy old friend but I'm sure, a man with your strength of charector and determination will help Mark pull through and get his life back on the straight and narrow.
I am sure that when he has seen the error of his ways Mark will be forever grateful to you for turning his life around before he became a member of a temperence society. With Gods' help and your resolve I am sure we will soon see Mark back on the Tropicoma. Good luck, Bob Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: jpchenet on October 27, 2005, 11:57:53 am Those of you that have met me (and quite a few have) will know that this is absolutely proposterous. I mean, me, soft drinks, never (unless used as a mixer or as part of Tropicoma). Frankly I am shocked that some of you could ever believe such a thing! You don't get a body like mine by drinking Diet Coke!!!! :o
What is equally scary though is that it was in fact Ballast who was driving and ordered Diet Coke. Not once, but twice! And why Diet Coke?? I think it may be a bit too late mate!! ;) We were going to stop at another pub on the way home but I refused to go in with him as we were closer to home and I couldn't risk being seen drinking with someone who was on diet coke by anyone who knew me. After all, I have a reputation to keep up! I can see the headlines now, "Beer Festival organiser seen with man drinking diet coke!" ??? He muttered something about not drinking with antibiotics and having to go back to "the clinic". A problem with the dose or something like that I think he said? ;D Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Andy Zarse on October 27, 2005, 12:00:09 pm I can't see the problem with it myself. If a man wants to drink soft drink, I say let him.
Personally, I favour a nice Pineapple Crush after 18 holes of Thwack-Fu ck. It's very refreshing, full of Vitamin C and doesn't imbue the horrible dizziness and sicky feeling following the ingestion of beers and other intoxicating liquors.

That'll be 18 holes at the Congo River then ::) http://www.congoriver.com/kissimmee/kindex.html (http://www.congoriver.com/images/aacoupon.jpg) Title: Re: Shocking News From Team JPC Post by: Andy Zarse on October 27, 2005, 02:09:50 pm Personally, I favour a nice Pineapple Crush after 18 holes of Thwack-Fu ck. But they didn't have any umbrellas or cocktail cherries ;D Ho-hum, reputations are a blessing and a curse all at the same time. It's the way of the world I suppose. As you all know, when at Le Mans, we at Team Zarse are infamous for our massive alcohol intake and are often to be found lying blind drunk in the gutter or upside down in a rubbish skip. I might add, we're much admired for it too. But in daily life, we generally all live sober professional lives, conducting ourselves with dignity and propriety. So great carousings and bachanalian orgies are a relative rarity to us, hence my personal affinity to Pineapple Crush. Thus, if Ballast or JP (and I'm still not sure who to believe here) want to be boring feckers, then so what?
